- Dmitri Alperovitch, author of World on the Brink: How America Can Beat China in the Race for the Twenty-First Century, joins The Realignment. Marshall and Dmitri discuss why he believes that Xi Jinping is preparing to invade Taiwan this decade, why a Chinese invasion would be disastrous for the U.S. and the world, how to apply the lessons from Vladimir Putin's preparations for his Ukraine invasion to the Taiwan question, and the strategies the U.S. and her allies can pursue to deter, and win if necessary, a conflict over Taiwan.

Why would the US get involved in the remnant of she Chinese civil war.
Because computer chips and naval trade routes to Korea and Japan. China won’t allow free trade and will strangle Japan and Korea which will severely hurt the world economy. To give you a reason to consider caring- think of what would happen to the American economy if personal computers tripled in price.
Because it is not a remnant of the Chinese civil war.
American propaganda and lies 😂
So glad you're here doing interviews like this. You're awesome. I saw you in Boston and I miss your presence on Breaking Points. Would love to see you and Ryan team up!
I don't care about TAIWAN or ISRAEL I LOVE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA....😍
K…?
Absolutely great podcast
taiwan already belong to china. thats american politics
That's Chinese fantasy.
@@profridayTaiwanese are Chinese , speak Chinese ,eat Chinese food, Chinese customs , dream in Chinese , think like Chinese ….
@@rainbow2639 But, Taiwan remains firmly free from China.
So by that metric, the US is part of Britain, right?
Half of Taiwanese love mainland China. It has family ties and over one million Taiwanese travel and work in China.
Great interview.
Blood for hegemony you can’t make this shit up 😂😂😂😂
Taiwan is a free country with a vibrant democratic form of government . their standard of living is much higher than in the mainland
🤣🤣🤣 FAKE expert🥸🥸🥸
How to defend Hawaii 🤣
I think the overriding issue is the health of our allies. Our economies (Japan, ROK, Philippines) are very afraid of China’s ambitions. We need to see the larger issues. Also, we have no right to consider ourselves the most powerful nation on earth if we won’t come to our friends’ aid when they need it. The isolationist’s argument falls short if our friends think they don’t need us. No more global currency. Is this what you want?
Wild idea: don’t
How can someone else defend your legs from your hands?
Pls comment on the Philippines strategy of China? Are they probing to see how far the USA will come to the Philippines’s defense and how long will Philippines political overlords foresee that its best interest is to align with the US if China does not cease in its bullying attempts? What is the USA’s Philippines strategy? How strategic is the Philippines to its position in deterring China’s invasion of Taiwan?
You should ask United States how far they are using Philippines as a puppet? During Duterte, things was quiet. Remember that president was actually anti-US.
Question how many Americans willing to die for 23million Chinese living in island 10,000 kilometres away from USA
social credit +50
Not so sure about the answer, but Chinese remains highly cautious.
First before they risk direct conflict, they'd expend their human shields in S.Korea, Japan and Philippines, then decide if it's worth American lives. Imperialists are cowards at heart.
I would like to hear more about the 50k plus benefits you were bragging about using your words for selling out that I saw on the @51-49 @jamesli CZcams channel?
The white man time is up 😂😂😂😂
Slava Rossiya (and China) 🇷🇺 🤝 🇨🇳 #FUkraine #LetsGoBrandon #UltraMAGA2024
Its a lame war we don't have to have and will cost so much
Yes yes so us lost its geographical supremacy and you’’ Pat 300%+ or more for any merchandise that is not made in us or Europe which is practically everything for the rest of your life. China will cut off Taiwan straight which ships 70% of world’s consumer goods so good luck
Dmitri is behind time. US monopoly of space technology, chip technology ,and AI technology is over. Kaput.
Related to a different podcast, I would love to hear about how you think this election is a referendum on Biden’s economy/inflation and not how he lost his base? Or at the very least both.
Or we can make things in our own country & stop propping up multinational corporations with NAFTA at the expense of mainland business.
We can’t afford it, anything made in USA will be way too expensive and majority of the raw materials needed are NOT found in US. Unless you don’t mind paying $450 for your shampoo then sure, we can bring it back
You mostly talk nonsense
This so called expert is so biased he could not even feel his bias himself.
He said China never full control Taiwan in normal situations. That is totally wrong. Qing Dynasty very effectively controlled Taiwan for long time, until it had to give it to Japan after its defeat by Japan.
2nd, PRC will fight a nuke war with US if that is what needed to take back Taiwan. PRC fought the peak Soviet army for a small island in the border river and fought the US army in Korean War for North Korea. Taiwan is much more important to China for historic, traditional, and geopolitical reasons than North Korean and the small island in a river. So according to him, US better to prepare another full out war with PRC, worse than Vietnam War and Korean War because PRC is fighting for its own territory, irrespective of what others think whether Taiwan is part of China.
By the way, Taiwan issue is an unfinished Chinese Civil War between PRC vs ROC.
Qing Dynasty only controlled the west coast of Taiwan, the central mountains and the east coast were beyond its jurisdiction. Japan was the first country that had full control of Taiwan.
Secondly, a barking dog does not bite. When it barks for 74 years (since PRC's inception), it has long become a bluffing dog.
@@profriday
You should talk to Japan that they were stupid AND they did not need to defeat Qing and force a unfair treaty to get Taiwan. Just land on the east coast.
In any case, you are entitled to your opinion. But the world does not run according to your opinion. It runs by majority opinions and major powers.
So if your opinion is different. Then it is useless, unless you could change the view of majority and/or the key major powers.
@@qingzhou9983 Chinese can talk all the talks for decades. At the end of the day, Taiwan is beyond China's control and jurisdiction.

"invasion" is the wrong word, because Taiwan is part of China and a country don't invade its own territory. The Taiwan issue is the domestic issue of China, if U.S. doesn't intervene the Taiwan issue, there would be no problem for the U.S.
Taiwan is the exiled government after the Chinese civil war. Both the Taiwan and PRC both think they are the one true China.
Taiwan is not a part of China. Taiwan does not belong to China.
Funny that "territory" has been free from PRC since its inception.
"Taiwan is part of China" is just a Chinese dream, not a reality.
Same old same old parroting from the guest.
Two ill-informed ideologues talking hot air. No substance, no knowledge and no logic.
